The patch titled
Subject: fs/epoll: use a per-cpu counter for user's watches count
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
fs-epoll-use-a-per-cpu-counter-for-users-watches-count.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: fs/epoll: use a per-cpu counter for user's watches count
This counter tracks the number of watches a user has, to compare against
the 'max_user_watches' limit. This causes a scalability bottleneck on
SPECjbb2015 on large systems as there is only one user. Changing to a
per-cpu counter increases throughput of the benchmark by about 30% on a
16-socket, > 1000 thread system.
